Chapter 1. Introduction

Overview

Congratulation with your STK600 AVRŽ Flash MCU Starter Kit. The STK600 is a complete starter kit and development system for the AVR and AVRŽ32 flash microcontrollers from ATMELŽ Corporation. It is designed to give designers a quick start to develop code on the AVR, combined with advanced features for using the starter kit to prototype and test new designs.

New firmware releases for STK600 are embedded with the releases of AVR StudioŽ. The upgrade process will start when you connect to the STK600 board (you will be asked to perform the procedure). If for some reason the automatic upgrade fails, please try the manual upgrade procedure.
